Putin's pattern

Russian original article: Is this pattern what
Vladimir Putin is returning the Russian people to? With his immoral
bloody invasion of Ukraine, this seems to be what he wants.Comment: This can be put through the machine-English translation, though it comes out very rough.

QUOTE

What separates us from the love of friends is envying or being envied, causing or receiving harm, insulting or being insulted, and suspicious thoughts. Would that you had never done or experienced anything of this sort and in this way separated yourself from the love of a friend.

QUOTE

'A faithful friend is beyond price' (Ecclus. 6:15), since he regards his friend's misfortunes as his own and suffers with him, sharing his trials until death.
